St Caimin's Church and the Round Tower on Inis Cealtra

Inis Cealtra (Holy Island) is full of pre-Christian and early Christian remains. St Caimin's Church is one of five churches on the island and is the only one which retains its roof. It may have been built about 1000 AD by Brian Boru. Beyond is the Round Tower.
